Name Coach
About Name Coach
Name Coach is a user-friendly recording and playback tool that enables faculty, staff, and students to voice-record their names so that others can hear how their names are pronounced. Faculty, staff, and students can record their names using a computer, mobile device, or phone.
There are two ways to record your name:
- Via a Blackboard course in which the tool has been enabled.
- Through the Name Coach Blackboard course.
